Speaking to delegates from around the globe, Mr. Potter underscored CHI’s interest in new hotel growth, development and investment. This mission has been a hallmark of Mr. Potter’s dynamic leadership since becoming CEO of this rapidly expanding hospitality group a year ago.
“I was pleased to have had the opportunity to share the particular expertise that Corinthia Hotels International has gained by developing exciting new destinations before many other brands. Such destinations included Turkey, the Czech Republic, Hungary, Russia, and Libya, where the Corinthia Bab Africa Hotel is the only Five-Star luxury property in Tripoli.”
